Idk man
Hello. I just joined today and I’ve been struggling recently in my relationship. And in my life. From past events I’ve never taken care of.
how I view myself
my happiness
my partner’s happiness
forgiving
being forgiven
it’s a long story and I still feel awkward going for advice.
my whole life I kinda went through whatever I was going through alone. I refused to go to therapy. Or to get any sort of medication. Don’t get me wrong. I believe it works and there’s nothing wrong with it. I know a lot of people who need it and I think it’s okay.
I just did it for so long. I always figured. I can get through it. I can get through it.
I watched my cousin get shot and nearly die in the back of a truck. When I told my best friend. Someone I considered a brother. My best friend said “damn. ****** wildin, do you wanna hop on and play destiny” a video game….. this was when he called me at 2 am. I had been riding my dirtbike and when he called I snapped out of it. I had no clue where I was. I was just driving on the road for hours. Replaying the day in my head. At that time I didn’t know if my little cousin would even make it out of the hospital.
I slowly lost every friend I had. I didn’t talk to anyone. There was a point. All I did was work. Come home. Pace around my room listening to music and then sleep. I stopped playing video games. I stopped doing all my hobbies. I ate the same thing everyday. And was noticing the amount I was eating was getting shorter. But I was getting fuller.
there’s a lot more. Just want to give a run down of a couple things.
then the relationship. I can’t look past things that have happened. I know I should. But I feel I’m not getting the same treatment I put in. I know I can be a pain
But I also think I’ve done good. I don’t want to share too much on a public forum. I would like to talk one on one with someone about it. I think it’s very personal and I would like a girls point of view on the relationship.

hey how are you? first of all i would like to say welcome to 7 cups. hopefully, you will get the support you need. you can chat with listeners 1 on 1 if you want. i read your entire post and you surely have been through a lot. seeing someone you love get shot must have been really traumatic. everyone responds differently to a traumatic event. i hope you get better soon. you have survived a lot and you will survive whatever is happening right now.
Thank you. I am doing okay.
my cousin did live. But it’s a scene that doesn’t fade away. Blood on me and my other little cousin and just a lot more graphic stuff. And the person who ended up shooting him. Same day. Shook my hand. And pretended it wasn’t him. Like he didn’t know what happened. At that time. No one knew he shot him. My cousin did lose his leg. Almost his life that day.
by any chance. Could you hear me out about my relationship? I still feel awkward telling someone. But being the first person to message. I feel I can feel a bit safer talking to you. Your really the only one who reached out. If it’s okay and not too much to ask. Could you give me feedback ? And trust me. Don’t just do it because you want to be nice. You don’t have to and I don’t want you to feel that way. I don’t want anyone too.
Sorry about all this. You can talk to me
